Fateme Asadi (Persian: فاطمه اسدی, romanizedFāṭmh Asdī; 1960–1984) was an Iranian Kurdish woman who was, according to the Iranian media, tortured and killed by the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan (PDKI).[2][3] The PDKI denied responsibility and accused the Iranian government of fabricating the report.[4] The PDKI had detained her husband, prompting Asadi to travel to them to obtain his release.[5] She disappeared and her remains were found 37 years later in 2021,[6] identified by a DNA test, and buried in the Chehel Cheshmeh mountains in Divandarreh district.[7] She was labelled a martyr by Iranian media.[8][6]
